A BIG FIRE IN LONDON.
Several People Killed and Property
 Worth $1,25O,OOO Burned.

Whiteley's enormous drapcry and general stores and warehouses in Westbourne Grove and Queens road, Paddington, were partly de- stroyed by fire. The damage is placed at S1,- 35o, 600. It is believed that there was no in- surance on the property. This circumstance is said to be due to the occurrence of previ- ous suspicious fires in the establishments owned by the firm.
 A dreadful accident occurred while the fire was in progress. Several of the Whiteley's employees and & score of fremen were cross ing frail bridge wh oh connected one of the burning buildings with another, when the structure collapsed and threw it's occupants down into the street, a distance of fifty feet. Three of the employees and two tiremen were killed outright. All the others received ter rible injuries, some of which must prove fatal.

Yankton Herald. 18th.

Not long ago a deputy sheriff from
the Black Hills brought to Yankton an
insane patient, and after lodging the
unfortunate in the asylum he went TO 4
Yankton bank with his voucher to
raise some cash. The banker looked
the document over and noticed an item
of twenty-five dollars for bus fure.
Knowing the impossibility of this being
q square bill he told the deputy he
would only advance him small
amount of cash as he doubted whether
the bill would be audited by the terri
torial auditor. "Oh. HI" said the
Black Hills man" have sent them in
that way before and they have passed
and been paid" But the banker would
only make small advance. but did
send the voucher in for the deputy.
and to his surprise it was audited and
paid. The Herald is no sensational
paper, but IN matters pertaining to the
peoples money there is no difference
whether thief is a republican or dem
ocrat. He must go. Now let Yank-
tons board of trustees for fhe insane
arylum investigate this matter and nail
the guilty man. The Herald is prepared
to have this Investigated and ii Audi
tor Caldwell or some one else is to
blame, let the guilty one be punished.

An ingenious chemist of New York
city has perfected a process by which to
eliminate the intoxicating properties
from whisky without detracting from
the nutriment of the fluid. 1t is net
likely that his discovery will make him
rich. for If whisky were robbed OF Its
Intoxicating qualities few would drink
it, distillers would starve. and prohibl-
tion agitatars would find themselves
without an occupation. The new dis
covery is therefore useless. and will
never repay its author for the tine and
labor he has given to it.
